    Civ 6 vs. Civ 5 in regards to future 7

    While it's true that i haven't modded, i've put thousands of hours into all the civs. The only one i've ever used mods on is 6; i feel like i need them to make the game enjoyable, and other versions I never felt that way. This is what I meant, and as a non-modder, i can't say for sure what's...

    Civ 6 vs. Civ 5 in regards to future 7

    One HUGE change between 5 and 6 was the access modders had to the bones of 6 the way they did w previous iterations. if you had the same ability to mod the game to the extent that was possible before, then i think you'd have a lot more love for the game than (not then) there is. Part of the...

    CIV 5 vs CIV 6

    this is pretty much where I'm at. i can't get past the horrific AI of 6, but still have more hrs there than 5. I also will never forgive them for not releasing the .dll for 6 so that modders can really get their hands under the hood, and maybe make an AI that maybe develops at least one tile...

    Why is Old World currently sitting on "mixed" ratings on Steam?

    If you played civ 6, and then tried OW, i think you're in for a rude awakening because they're barely the same genre of game. OW requires, to me anyway, a different mindset than civ4 and civ5 and especially civ6; the AI is good, or, at least, requires a player to be paying attention, and not...

    i think you're touching on something here that the GOTM will help with. I think while we're playing and, more importantly, reading and writing reports, we'll see strategies, tricks, and little MM techniques that we didn't even think of -- and reduce the number of times you need to UNDO b/c of...

    have to agree. if you really need to get those sweet CFC points by cheating in the GOTM, then, some perspective may be in order for you. for the rest of us, i think the "honor" system should work for the most part w/e is decided. my 2 cents on UNDO is that the Civ gotms have worked fine w/o...

    i also think a GOTM where we have predetermined ambitions would be interesting to see.

    City Levels

    short of granting yourself wonders and multiple holy cities ;) you can look at throwing specialists into those buildings as well. iirc, they also increase culture.

    Old World Monthly Challenge

    more than anything, there's a line to walk with Old World more than other games as random narrative events are a large part of the game. it would be nice if a dev ( :cough: @Dale @Solver :cough: ) sees this or if you guys can talk with them about how events are 'determined.' would you and i...

    ROTQM13: Rolling Over The Quintet's Magic

    i definitely want in, but don't know that i can commit to the time. The heat here is really kicking me around during the day while i work, and some nights i eat, and just fall asleep. i may need a skip a time or two over the next game. if that's ok, stick me at the end where i can't foul...

    ROTQM13: Rolling Over The Quintet's Magic

    huzzah! one sinus infection, and i awaken to eternal victory! are we thinking more AW for the next game or a 'just win'? also, in-game notes are good, but also i think some are reading along so posting pics summarizing the situations on the various fronts or general world/culture maps from...

    Old World Monthly Challenge

    Yes, yes, and yes. I think there should be like a fastest victory type b/c there will definitely be the community there for that, i think, here on this site. I also think there is the community for longer form reports and rp writeups, as well. I think if the space is provided for people to do...
